Cracked glass isn’t always an emergency, but it really depends on the size and location of the crack. Small hairline cracks can sometimes hold for a while, but they tend to spread with temperature changes, especially in Everett, WA where the weather shifts a lot. I found this Everett home window repair guide helpful for understanding when a repair is reasonable versus when replacement makes more sense. In my experience, if the crack affects visibility or insulation, it’s better not to wait too long.
